Agree. I don't understand the allure of her character by most people. First of all, she is so messed up as a person because of her equally messed up parents, and her manipulative personality makes her even more dangerous. In my opinion, Gang Tae and Moon Young would have been an utter disaster if their relationship occurred in real life. Both have emotional baggage, both have psychological traumas, both have insecure attachment styles. Their relationship would be so toxic they would end up destroying each other. So conveying the message that romance can heal two emotionally and psychologically damaged people is absolute nonsense. I took up Abnormal Psychology as part of my Clinical Psychology course in postgrad school prior, and aside from the fact that I am doubtful that she truly has Antisocial Personality Disorder (Moon Young apologizing to Sang Tae for what her mother did to theirs was already a clue since ASPD's are incapable of feeling any guilt at all), I prefer they undergo therapy and counseling separately as individuals, contrary to what Show tells us that romantic love is the answer. And that is, if Moon Young is genuinely a psychopath. From what I know, clinical intervention for Antisocial Personality Disorder is pretty much hopeless due to its nature. These people possess no empathy nor remorse and they are masters at deception and manipulation. In reality, no drug or therapy has proven to be effective in treating it. True, Seo Yi Ji's performance is noteworthy. Show has made an attempt to humanize this dangerous and destructive personality disorder. But hopefully, with sufficient research (DSM-5 would be a good place to start), people will realize that her character here is definitely not someone to be admired or looked up to.

I love that the overall theme of this drama is about good karma. The more you save, the more people are being saved by those you initially saved because the ability to dream about future events multiplies. The arc involving Mr. Choi made me cry honestly, it was so emotional. WYWS is one of my most favorite Kdramas ever. It became an unexpected favorite!

Crash Landing on You is the only Korean series that makes me wistful and a tad bit emotional when remembering it. It's right on top of 49 Days. It was beautiful and quite bittersweet. I love the romance, I love the characters, both main and secondary/extra's. I love the friendship and family relationships. I love the special friendship between Se-ri and the ducklings. I love the ending of the second female lead Seo Dan (contrary to popular opinion I love that she grew into her own woman and became independent of any man, it was a good conclusion to her character). I love the redemption of The Rat. Ahhhhh this was a very, very, very special drama that deserved a top spot in my most favorite Korean dramas of all time. Yes it was not completely perfect but it's so full of heart. It will take a very long time for me to love another Kdrama as beautiful and special as this.

I have to admit, I disliked the first few episodes of this drama. But it grew on me and now it's one of my favorites. I really disliked the fact that Oh Yeon Soo was mostly the one who made more effort in their relationship, initiating from their first date to them getting back together. Jung Rok should have made more effort and hadn't given up so easily because of her manager's interference. Why do I love it though? Simple. Yeon Soo and Kwon Jung Rok had a good, healthy relationship. Whatever issue they encountered, they were able to work through it because both had trust, patience and understanding of each other's situation. As someone who had a tough break up this year, seeing this kind of relationship is truly refreshing. It was nice to see how a relationship should be handled for it to bloom and last.

Well, basically it's sageuk (thus, politics and power struggle galore especially in season 2), thriller and a horror drama all in one. It has great writing, direction, cinematography and overall production value. BUT maybe because it's too dark and has a lot more blood and gore than I would've have wanted that I don't consider it my favorite. Still, I'm waiting for season 3. I have to say it's pretty relatable in our time of covid. Try watching it though and see for yourself. Warning, it's not for the faint of heart. Ju Ji Hoon (the crown prince) remarked that season 2 is "gruesome" and he was not kidding.

Two of my favorite actors in one drama!

Well I've only started to warm up to him in the last episode of season 2. HE was the reason why the disease became an epidemic in the first place! >:(

This is the first kdrama that gave me goosebumps-literally! I got chills just watching it. Train to Busan is one of my favorite movies of all time yet despite the fact that it's a zombie thriller, I didn't really feel threatened by their situation. But Kingdom is absolutely terrifying.

This was a good drama. How I wish good men like President Park would win in the real world.
